- **MEMES: psychology, philosophy and art.**
The word MEME was coined for the first time in 1977 by Richard Dawson in his book "the selfish gene", where he states that a meme is "the smallest unit of cultural reproduction" that is, the equivalent of a gene but at a sociological level. Now one of the main characteristics of a meme is its decontextualization, the ability to take an event or image and take it out of context to the point of absurdity, therefore, what we know today as a meme in the digital world becomes a meme with respect to what Richard Dawson referred to, some examples that he mentions are: tunes or sounds, ideas, slogans, fashions in terms of clothing, ways of making pots or building bows.
Before continuing let's talk about the primordial memes, which are the archetypes, an archetype is a universal idea that we can only intuit from its forms and expressions in myths, religions and stories, for example, the idea of the son of god and his resurrection, we find it in the story of Jesus in Christianity, Dionysus in the Greeks and Balder in the Norse, all are children of the primordial god, they die and resurrect. Another quite popular is the archetype of the hero, the character lives a normal and quiet life, something happens that forces him to go on a journey to overcome himself and defeat the "evil" and then ends the journey being a completely new man (or woman), these archetypes are so popular and long-lived because they speak to us at an unconscious level, they describe as a metaphor stages through which every human being goes through at a certain time of his life.
A meme is also a virus that spreads like an idea from brain to brain, a neural network that is reproduced in each brain circuit, Deleuze said in postulates of linguistics that language only needs to transmit a minimum of information to achieve its true purpose which is "to designate a discourse", which means in other words that the function of language is to transmit ways of thinking, behaviors and slogans. How many of us, when seeing a meme that makes us laugh, have commented "literally me"?
Now, memes always have a component of subversion, sometimes morally, although these are not the most propagated, but of subversion of logic, that is to say, they have a component of absurdism. Absurdism is a philosophy proposed by Albert Camus who stated that life had no meaning, therefore it was our job to find that meaning. A meme by reproducing a certain pattern of absurdity generates a code, and every culture needs codes, therein lies much of its power because communities are identified from their ability to decode certain codes, like that inside joke between your group of 5 friends that only understand each other and when there is another person present is excluded from the joke.
They also function as rituals in the sense that they are charged with affects, emotions and psychic energy as they spread and thus become symbols to the level where you don't know where they came from or what they meant in the first place, a more literal extrapolation of this is memecoins, people put their money (energy) there in the hope of being able to double their investment quickly, and since most of the time a meme is fast food media, it is natural that memecoins are also fast food "investments" to a large extent, but their power is undeniable and it is worth asking why some of these survive, just as certain memes last longer than others.
Finally, can memes work as social engineering? Definitely yes, just look at how an agency like Brand Fire has dedicated itself to the creation of memes to market its clients' products or how a Russian website created a meme comparing CNN with North Korea's political propaganda. The question then arises, can these mechanisms be used in a positive or favorable way for society? We will see.
